Chihuahua

Overview:

The Chihuahua is a tiny bundle of joy. Kids love him ' and for good reason. This breed seems always excited about something. They do best as an indoor dog, but they love to scamper around in the yard ' in suitable weather.

If you’re looking to adopt a dog and don’t know where to start, puppyfinder.com is an excellent source for information about adopting a dog and will connect you with hundreds of shelters across the US that have adoptable puppies and older dogs waiting for forever homes.

Do your research – find out what types of dogs would be a good fit for your lifestyle and the activity level of your family. Also keep in mind the grooming needs of certain breeds that might require frequent maintenance.

Decide what you can handle – before you get sucked in by all the adorable puppy eyes you’re about to see, think long and hard about the appropriate age dog for your family or if you are capable of caring for a special needs dog. Puppies are a lot of work, if you don’t have time for potty training and obedience classes you’ll want to consider an older dog. There are plenty of middle aged, vibrant dogs up for adoption as well as many senior dogs that would be a great fit for a family looking for a more subdued dog with lots of love to give.

Learn about the shelters and their adoption policies – It might be easier to start looking at shelters within a certain radius of home but don’t be afraid to venture out to other states as well. Many states have larger populations of adoptable dogs and their shelters are willing to transport pets to suitable adopting families. Some shelters might have requirements for a home visit, a fenced yard or require you to visit the pet multiple times before you commit to adopting. Understand that the shelters are doing their best to place the pets in suitable homes and these requirements are in the best interest of both you and the pet.

Start looking… Once you know what you’re looking for and what to expect you can start your search through thousands of adoptable dogs. PuppyFinder allows you to search by age, breed, location and gender.

Meet in person. Whenever possible it is best to meet the animal in person before agreeing to bring them into your life. Even though photos and descriptions can tell you a bit about a dog, you can’t get a true feeling for the animal until you are able to interact with them and make sure they are a good fit for your entire family, including other pets.

Posted Breed: German Shepherd Dog / Mixed (long coat). Hi my name is Diamond! I am a German Shepard mix that is approximately three years old. I'm extremely loyal and would love a family of my own where I am the only dog. Cats are fun to chase, so the hoomans say it's best if here are no cats at my furever home, either. I need some time to warm up to new people so I need someone who has the patience to let take my time. Once I get to know you my personality comes out and I'm a total goofball. I enjoy long walks and cuddling with my person. I love my belly rubs, so much so that I even smile during them. I am crate trained and I know that I'm supposed to potty outside. I'm currently working on commands such as sit, stay, heel, return, and down. I'm very smart and learning quickly! I can't wait to find my forever home and go on my next adventure with them. I'm currently in foster so if you would like to meet me, please send an email expressing interest at priceless.pets@yahoo.com

Posted Breed: Beagle / Dachshund (short coat). A letter from his foster family....
" This our new friend Wheelie Nelson. He came to us as a hot mess. Scared to death. Biting everyone that got near him. Exhausted. He's had a rough go of things the last week or so. He's decompressing at our house for a bit. You see, Wheelie is paralyzed. From the waist down. Which means he needs constant help in and out of diapers, drag bags, wheelchairs, wagons, bath tubs...he even needs someone to help him go to the bathroom (no feeling back there). All this means is he needs someone he can trust implicitly. Someone he knows isn't going to hurt him.
We had a tough first day including a 45 minute standoff to get out of the car. But by the end of the day he was allowing me to help him in and out and clean him without freaking out. And by this morning he's not only looking for me but coming over to me to pick him up and sit in my lap. Wheelie has a lot of love to give. He needs patience and understanding and most of all someone who will love him back as a blessing rather than a burden. We're hoping to find Wheelie the perfect home and the perfect person. If you're at all interested in adopting him or know someone who might be, please message me or email info@pricelesspetrescue.or g and if you'd like to make a donation towards his care please visit pricelesspetrescue.org/donate "

Posted Breed: Chihuahua / Terrier / Mixed (short coat). Meet Connie. She is a big personality in a little body. We like to consider her the little old lady of the adoption center, with oh so much personality. She is a little DIVA! If you are looking for some spunk in your boring life, this is your girl.
She is good with other dogs, good with cats that are secure in themselves, will chase little kittens. She is potty trained, and will whine to go out and let you know that she has to go out. She is fine in her crate, but would like to sleep in a chair in your home. She likes to be near you and getting love from you. While she is so much personality, she has to be directed in order to make sure her divaness isn't getting out of control.
If you are looking for a purse dog, this is your gal. She would love to be carried around the home, will miss you when you're gone and loves to be around people who are showing her attention.
Traits:
Perfect size - small apartment appropriate
Good on leash
Sleeps through night
Loves to cuddle, and hang with you on the couch
Loves treats, and dinner time
She will talk to you, if you are feeling lonely and need someone to talk to she will carry on a conversation with you!

Posted Breed: Pit Bull Terrier (short coat). Dana is a sweet 7 year old pit bull looking for her perfect forever home. This cutie was found wandering the streets of Ontario and she came right to us when we called her over, all tail wags and smiles. She's spayed and up to date on all her sho ts. She has lots of energy, but also loves to nap as much as possible (right next to you if you'll let her!). Dana loves people of all shapes and sizes. She enjoys going on walks, going for rides in the car, and generally exploring the world as much as she can. She knows how to sit and wait and is also crate trained and housebroken. She gets along well with other dogs, but would do best in a home with no other pets or only docile, mild mannered pets. If you are interested in meeting her, please email priceless.pets@yahoo.com
